*This listing is for the standard edition version and does NOT come with a limited edition slipcase!* Vinegar Syndrome specializes in the masterful restoration and distribution of cult, horror, and erotic films from the 1960s-90s. Jaxxon Pierce (Stephen Dorff, Blade), a capitalist in a now-barren Earth is responsible for manufacturing an immortality serum named "Divinity", which was originally developed by his late father Sterling Pierce (Scott Bakula, Lord of Illusions). Two brothers (Moises Arias and Jason Genao, Ender's Game and Logan, respectively), crash into the decaying Earth to stop Jaxxon from capitalizing on his serum, which is synthesized utilizing heinous methods and leaving an increasingly dire infertility rate in its wake. The twins hold Jaxxon hostage, dosing him with his own drug until his body becomes monstrous, setting the stage for a practical effects-fueled climax full of gruesome make-up and stop motion animation that has to be seen to be believed. Written and directed by Eddie Alcazar (Perfect), produced by Steven Soderbergh (Solaris) and gorgeously shot on 16mm black and white reversal film, DIVINITY is a sci-fi horror show like no other in recent memory. Featuring an eclectic ensemble cast that includes former teen star Bella Thorne (The DUFF), four-time Mr. Universe champion Michael O'Hearn, TV star Karrueche Tran (TNT's Claws) and contemporary adult film performer Emily Willis, Vinegar Syndrome Pictures is proud to bring Alcazar's lovingly crafted analog genre blast to home video following an international festival run that included nominations at Sundance and Sitges.

Description

Twelve years after a doomed scientific expedition uncovers something prehistoric beneath the frozen earth, a quiet snowbound town finds itself under siege by a creature long thought to be nothing more than a myth. Following a series of brutal attacks, the terrifying truth emerges: an ancient predator has awakened, hunting from beneath the snow. A small group of locals, scientists, and hunters band together to confront the impossible, hunting a shark creature that strikes without warning, dragging its victims into the icy depths. Working with a microbudget but unlimited DIY heart, writer-director Sam Qualiana crafts a monster movie that embraces its practical effects, hometown charm, and the enduring appeal of creature features. Emerging at the front end of the modern sharksploitation wave, SNOW SHARK: ANCIENT SNOW BEAST stands as one of the earliest low-budget entries to reimagine the shark film outside its natural Hollywood habitat, pushing the sub-genre into absurd, snowbound territory with clever and unapologetic ambition. 15 years since its initial release, SNOW SHARK remains a stellar example of scrappy, grassroots regional filmmaking.
